Weak End Rap Up


Some unusual projects on my docket around the end of the week. I've been approached by a music producer out east to work up an inside/outside cd package with a 'sci fi' theme (the idea is that the cd package is in fact a relic of an alien civilization, the exterior like a weathered 'black box' and the inside full of technological doo dads and whatnots, and also incorporating the band's 'logo design' in such a way that it is hidden in the designs). This stuff is way outside my usual comfort zone, but I've been having fun playing around with various unusual techniques and tricks, mostly in photoshop. Probably still not at the finish line with this project, but here's a sneak peak at the progress so far.
(these tiny reproductions don't really do justice to all the details, so if you click on each image, you will see a larger version)

Also been doing a lot of sketching for upcoming projects (one of which, for Barrons, is posted below), mostly ahead of schedule, because I'm going to try and take a long weekend and catch up on some sailing on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Unfortunately, my body didn't get the message, and decided to come down with a cold on Thursday, which I'm still fighting.
